But how do you manage outrageous talent? What do you do to inspire loyalty from your players? How do you turn around a team in crisis? Whats the best way to build long-term success? How can you lead calmly under pressure? The issues are the same whether youre managing a Premier League football team or a FTSE 100 company.
